Aloha,

Create Again!
Color swirls in the atmosphere; musical notes hang in the air; ideas fall like rain while visions of art burst forth. Creativity is awakened, and the Creator is inviting you to create!

“Do not dismiss what I have given you because it looks different,” Jesus says to His creatives.
“I AM not asking you to design or birth or make things like everyone else. I AM Calling you to create from intimacy with Me!”

Some of you have buried your creativity because what you made was criticized. Others have compared themselves to people who seemed more gifted, more successful, or more recognized.

But Jesus urges you, “Stop measuring your creativity by the response of others. Your obedience matters more than applause. I AM breathing life into dreams that have been dormant. I AM restoring courage to those who stopped creating. I AM unlocking ideas that have been waiting for the right season.”

He is calling you to create again! Write again! Paint again! Sing again! Build again! Imagine again! Creative vessels come alive! Draw from the Creator rather than comparison. There will be times when you create something, and no one will understand it. Create anyway. Even when the process feels messy, create anyway. Trust the ultimate artist.

You do not have to understand every brushstroke to trust the One who empowers you to wield the brush. It is time for a sense of wonder to be restored in the people of God. Allow the Spirit of God to begin restoring imagination and the joy of making something — simply because you love Him and He is worth it!

Your creativity is a place of worship. It brings hope, healing, and awakens hearts. It points people back to the One who created it all. Do not hide what He has entrusted to you. What He is awakening, use it to bring Him glory.
God spoke to Moses: “See what I’ve done; I’ve personally chosen Bezalel son of Uri, son of Hur of the tribe of Judah. I’ve filled him with the Spirit of God, giving him skill and know-how and expertise in every kind of craft to create designs and work in gold, silver, and bronze; to cut and set gemstones; to carve wood-he’s an all-around craftsman.”
Exodus 31:1-3 (MSG)

Activation: Take a breath and invite Jesus into your creativity. Ask: “Jesus, what have you placed inside of me that you want me to use to create with you?”

Pause and notice what comes to mind: a color, image, word, idea, or desire. Journal and create where He leads you.

“If thou hast run with the footmen, and they have wearied thee, then how canst thou contend with horses? and if in the land of peace, wherein thou trustedst, they wearied thee, then how wilt thou do in the swelling of Jordan?” Jeremiah 12:5

Let God Be Your Shield
Do you hear the singing in The Spirit? The sound of Psalm 3 is being sung, the words washing over you?

“My Beloved, come into My hiding place and allow Me to be your shield; your glory and the lifter up of your head. Step into the spirit and see the hiding place hidden deep within Me, where rivers of living waters flow, and the manifestation of My Presence dwell. Take My Hand and allow Me to lead you into deeper encounters with Me,”says The Spirit of The LORD.

This is your invitation into eternal encounter. Let God lead you deep into His Presence, and abide there. Allow God to show you the place He has prepared for you, a place of meeting and wonder. For He will never forget you, nor forsake you. He is always waiting for you to be with Him.
“But You, Lord, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high.” Psalm 3:3 (NIV)
Activation : What things do you need to be hidden from? Do you need healing, provision, or freedom? All of these are found in the Presence of The LORD. In prayer, ask The Holy Spirit to take you into His Hiding Place and partner with Him for your needs.

Trust That God Knows the Way
The LORD’s ways are higher than ours – “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways… As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts,” isaiah 55:9.

Though you see a path ahead is opening up for you, always be ready, listening and obedient to God, for now all openings and not all routes are His best ways for your life.

You may see your desired destination right next to you. However there is still a distance to go, a path The LORD wants to lead you on to stretch, teach and grow you. Even though the narrow way may not always make “sense”, if you take The LORD’s hand and walk in step with His Spirit, He will lead you through the plans of hope that He has for you.

Just as He led His people by way of the wilderness, He will lead you in the best way to go. Even though there was a quicker route to Canaan, and the Israelites would have arrived years sooner, they were not ready to take their promised land. Without the journey of miracles and learning to both enjoy and fear The LORD, they would have fled back to slavery in Egypt. Thus He led them on the path that He know they needed to go in order to be able to arrive and dwell as His people in the promised land.
And the Spirit of The LORD says to you today, “I know your way forward. I know the plans I have for you. Trust me and follow the way I lead you, even if you think in your earthly perspective that there is a better way. Trust that my way is higher, that I have a divine, eternal perspective.”
Be led by The LORD in this season, trust that He knows where to go.

“Then it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead them by way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, “Lest perhaps the people change their minds when they see war, and return to Egypt.” So God led the people around by way of the wilderness of the Red Sea. And the children of Israel went up in orderly ranks out of the land of Egypt.”
Exodus 13:17-18 NKJV

Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever.

Giving And Receiving
Not that I am looking for a gift, but I am looking for what may be credited to your account (Phil 4:17).

The apostle Paul had a tent-making business. However, over time, it was evident that more and more of his time was being given to vocational ministry activities. That required him to receive income from those to whom he invested his life. It became increasingly difficult to run a business and travel and minister.

His letter to the Philippians gives us a perspective on giving. Although Paul appreciated the support financially, his real joy came in the fact that their gift was being credited to their Heavenly account.
Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles. Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia, not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only; for even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid again and again when I was in need. Not that I am looking for a gift, but I am looking for what may be credited to your account. I have received full payment and even more; I am amply supplied, now that I have received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent. They are a fragrant offering, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God. And my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus” (Phil 4:14-19 emphasis mine).

Paul had a confidence that God would always provide what he needed. Sometimes it came from his business. Sometimes it came through others. He was not overly concerned with where his provision would come from. His confidence was in God, his provider. So, his attitude was in affirming the benefit that came to the giver from a Kingdom perspective.

Paul learned that it wasn’t a church or a business that was his provider. It was God. These were merely tools God used to support him.
